H17CB-3
The BASO Gas Products H17CB-3 is a 3/8 inch pilot valve specifically designed for gas-fired HVAC equipment, most commonly furnaces and boilers. It's a small but critical component that controls the flow of gas to the main burner. Here's how it works:
The pilot valve receives a signal, typically from a thermocouple or flame sensor, indicating the presence or absence of a pilot flame. When the pilot flame is lit and stable, the valve opens, allowing a regulated flow of LP (liquid propane) gas to reach the main burner. If the pilot flame goes out for any reason, the valve automatically shuts off the gas supply to the main burner as a safety measure. This prevents uncontrolled gas leaks and potential fire hazards. The BASO H17CB-3 is designed to withstand high temperatures, typically up to 300°F (149°C), common in furnace and boiler operation. Its lightweight build (around 0.4 pounds) makes it easy to handle during installation or maintenance.
By regulating gas flow to the main burner based on the pilot flame's status, the BASO H17CB-3 pilot valve plays a vital role in ensuring safe and efficient operation of your gas-fired HVAC system. It helps prevent gas leaks, contributes to steady system operation, and provides peace of mind with its automatic shut-off function.
